Bizenghast #2

Summary

Armed with the first of the four tower guards, Dinah and Vincent set out to solve the rest of the Mausoleum's riddles, which prove more difficult as the journey progresses. The deceptive puzzles of Bizenghast's Graveyard lead the children to an ancient seaside to stop a drowned girl's murderous rampage. Later, they travel through Bizenghast's early past to rid the woods of a festering plague-carrier. And finally, they come face to face with the mysterious second tower guard, Edrear.

Sociology is interested in the ways people shape the society they live in, and the ways society shapes them. Simply, it is the study of what modern society is and how it functions.
In the series’ inimitable style, Introducing Sociology traces the origins of sociology from industrialization, revolution and the Enlightenment through to globalization, neoliberalism and the fear of nationalism – introducing you to key thinkers, movements and concepts along the way.
You will develop insight into the world around you, as you engage your ‘sociological imagination’ and explore studies of the city, theories of power and knowledge, concepts of national, racial and sexual identity, and much more.
